Texas Caviar from Jaimi

1 16 oz can of Pinto Beans – drained

1 16 oz can of Black Eyed Peas – drained

1 16 oz can of White Corn – drained

1 small green pepper chopped

1 small jalapeno chopped

1-2 stalks of celery chopped (to taste)

1 cup of red onion chopped

Cilantro chopped (to taste)

Mix all of the above ingredients in a bowl and put aside.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

½ cup vegetable oil

½ cup sugar

½ cup white vinegar

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

Bring all of these items to a boil.

Let it cool and then pour over the mixture you set aside earlier.

Marinate at least 2 hours (it’s even better if you let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.)

Serve with Frito Lay Scoop chips.

Tips: The vinegar/oil/sugar mixture doesn’t look like it’s enough to cover all the ingredients, but it is plenty. As it sits and marinates, the liquid will rise to the top. Once it rises to the top and when you are ready to serve, just be sure to stir it up well.
